How to Maintain Your Results After a Professional Facial, Peel, or Laser Treatment
You’ve just left the esthetician’s office with that unmistakable post-treatment glow. Whether you had a deep-cleansing facial, a transformative chemical peel, or a resurfacing laser treatment, your skin is currently at its most vulnerable—and its most receptive.
The truth is, 80% of your results happen at home. What you do in the seven days following a professional treatment determines whether you’ll see lasting radiance or accidental irritation. Here is your pro-guide to protecting your investment.
The "Golden Rule": Hands Off
It’s tempting to touch your skin when it feels exceptionally smooth or starts to "peel," but resistance is key.
-
No Picking: If you had a chemical peel or laser, let the skin shed naturally. Forcing it can lead to scarring or hyperpigmentation.
-
Keep it Clean: Avoid touching your face with unwashed hands, as your pores are open and more susceptible to bacteria.
Phase 1: The First 48 Hours (Soothe & Shield)
Directly after a treatment, your skin barrier is temporarily thinned. Your goal is to calm inflammation and prevent water loss.
-
Avoid Heat: Skip the gym, saunas, and hot showers for at least 24–48 hours. Sweat and heat can increase inflammation.
-
The "Pro" Trick: If your skin feels hot or throbbing, use a cold compress to bring down the temperature safely.

Phase 2: The "7-Day Hydration Soak"
The most common mistake people make after a treatment is letting the skin get too dry. When new skin is exposed, it loses water much faster than "old" skin.
-
For Facials & Peels (Water-Based): Stick to water-based serums like Enspri Peptide Plus Serum. These sink into the deeper layers immediately, providing the amino acids needed for cellular repair without suffocating the pores.
-
For Laser Treatments (Oil-Based Protection): Laser treatments often leave the skin "broken" or highly compromised. In this case, you need a pure, oil-based lipid like Enspri Sheer Ceramide immediately. Because it is powered by high-quality Squalane, it creates a protective "artificial barrier" that prevents raw skin from drying out or becoming irritated by the air.
-
The Nightly Sheet Mask: For the first 7 days, use a sheet mask packed with Hyaluronic Acid or Peptides every single night. This creates a physical seal that forces moisture and building blocks into the skin, acting like a "cool drink of water" for treatment-stressed cells.
Phase 3: Rebuild & Maintain
Once the initial sensitivity fades, your skin needs the "building blocks" to form a healthy new barrier.
-
Rebuild the Lipid Shield: After a peel or laser, your skin's natural moisture shield is stripped.
-
The Step: Apply Enspri Sheer Ceramide twice daily. The Squalane mimics your skin’s natural oils to soften the new skin cells and lock in deep moisture without any greasy residue.
